7:03 am
behind and it is a sense of anger and disappointment at the american president barack obama staunch they feel that his grades at the united nations yesterday was overwhelmingly in support of israel in fact some of the palestinians i've been speaking to say that they feel the best speech was an attempt to try and run away from the united nations but in and if it's to try and safe place and avoid some kind of embarrassment what people have been telling me here is if they feel that america has double standards it was president obama who just last year said that this year they would be an independent palestine and now he is the person at the front in preventing this from happening people are also telling me that the language that obama used in terms of the arab spring he used words such as liberty and people power he was a great supporter of the arab spring and now he says that once that if an international community that has the power to veto a palestinian state on going away the latest news we have is that i've gone there to meet with
7:04 am
a bass the palestinian president he tried to convince him not to take that said to the united nations security council let's involve the keep that's what the general assembly of course that would have been more symbolic but the. security council is so much more important they're all fifteen members of the security council at least not even if he stays have shown overwhelming support among them brazil china russia south africa india one of they were showing support for just how to stand in the now they don't seem to be in some kind of compromise on the cards because while we understand that a bus will still be sustaining this for tomorrow he has agreed to some kind of delay in terms of when the vote will happen and palestinians here in ramallah saying that they are very disappointed by this they would not want to see any kind of the base as it may such as united nations diplomats admitting could see them viewing this whole process for another few months we're not there yet and so the decision is made through what is going on the french president nicolas sarkozy he has said that the united nations should escape palestine as
7:05 am
a non member observateur not president obama has been quiet about this but as you can well imagine these ladies are angry this is the last thing they would want that they would not want to see the palestinians have any kind of access to international bodies from the international criminal court the way the palestinians will be able to prosecute the israelis occupying their land paula as you were saying just a moment ago there was a huge amount of global support when it comes to the palestinian bid for statehood at the u.n. but also as a bench and a twenty four hours ago a state of jubilation in the west right now a sense of disappointment as you were saying earlier i tend to side with israel here regarding the international reaction to the statehood bid in recent days or how is that evolving ahead of the crucial u.n. at meetings in new york. because such a scene a whole lot of international outpouring of support for the declaration of a palestinian state and some of it is coming from rather unusual sources also talks jews in new york had been advocating for the decoration of the space maybe in various integrations in numerous european cities among them london among them how
7:06 am
these ratings have beefed up the army and police praising the security in the waistband where we understand they could be fearful of violence as. this begins with the paid for not on the palestinian villages in palestinian cities not israelis also worried about is that the faces will provoke the palestinians to the effect that they will be to the south of violence at the same time we are hearing that naturally television leaves with the american president the fear that they were being told that the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu would also be a place in the united nations for mother he is revising his speech at least so that it will reflect what obama said but critics are complaining that netanyahu and his government is spending a lot of time on propaganda and on speeches rather than actually dealing with this very real opportunity that would see some kind of real peace some kind of a real possibility of the way forward being heralded between israelis and
7:07 am
palestinians what particular race and other palestinian state. is a policy that thank you. while the u.s. acts like it's more than a single body of the united nations are violating the pluralism of the world group that's the view of the iranian president mahmoud ahmadinejad who spoke to us on the situation in palestine. thing one of the this is the continuation of suppressing the rights of the palestinian people and the palestinian nation they are people like all the other nations they must have the right to determine their own destiny they must have the right to choose their destiny on the other hand if the united nations is truly pluralistic in its makeup then why would they allow a country to see itself and speak of itself as the chief of the united nations a pluralistic representative body and also why can they dictate to the united states a truly single member of a much larger body than it should have a single vote then why does that vote all that pressure carry so much more weight
7:08 am
and i do stay with us here and i say you can watch that interview in full next hour right here. i know later on thursday the iranian president is due to address the u.n. general assembly of the many american politicians and some protestors outside the united nations are opposed to with us but in john even being there in the first place christine for zone now explores why iran is considered public enemy number one to some. just about everywhere you look at iran continues to develop nuclear weapons someone whether politician or pundit are controlled by a fanatical regime is beating the drums of war how close are we to the point of no return well i think we may be past the point of no return in the sense that iran does have inside the country everything it needs to produce a nuclear weapon that point of no return often exaggerated according to journalist seymour hersh who's in-depth articles recently this one in the new yorker
7:09 am
illustrated time and time again the lack of evidence of a nuclear threat from iran the rhetoric though has resulted in widespread support for harsh actions against a country we support a station's program that's the sign to stop the punishment is. aimed at stopping the arrhenius from doing something we know we know they're not doing things called for repeatedly by the obama administration so let me be clear iran's nuclear and ballistic missile actively poses a real threat not just to the united states but the runs neighbors and our allies hurst compares president obama's added two toward iran to bush and cheney's policy toward iraq they want to punish they want to make a case against iraq they didn't write their politics. so we made a case about nuclear weapons we were talking about mushroom clouds make a case to go to war. and to war america went. many worry it could happen as
7:10 am
well in iran if rhetoric becomes reality you ran is that a very perilous position and it's obvious that the cross. spheres are on them squarely if anyone wants to know how it would begin to look no further than those hoping to have their finger on the button here's john mccain four years ago the old beach boys song. and history does in fact repeat itself with the greatest threat to the security the world is a nuclear iran iran is a country that has killed more american men and women in uniform in iraq and afghanistan than the iraqis and the afghanistan's half this is last month g.o.p. presidential debate in iowa only one candidate strayed from the script just think of how many nuclear weapons surround iran did chinese are there the indians that pakistan is here and why one should be natural that they might want to weapons there'd be internationally they'd be given more respect but one man given very little respect on u.s.
7:11 am
soil iranian president mahmoud ahmadinejad number one villain for so many in this. last year the group united against nuclear iran with these posters up all over new york city perpetuating the idea of the hostile iran while the rest of the economy is sinking and the military industrial complex grows and grows and grows in other words war is good business right it may also be good business to take a closer look at the way the narrative unfolds this time around to ask when you hear the drums of war being beaten yet again if it is in fact a matter of preparedness and perkasa or if it is simply propaganda. in washington christine for artsy. just eleven minutes past the hour here in moscow still to come on the program. why we. are watching the sky and cinema coming from an old not so subtle idea and so on its way back to earth but it's not expected to land in an

the bridge. drug. and the country is now suffering from its homegrown product that already kills dozens of thousands of users worldwide each year. right. kind of the final why from. russia new protests underpants for. space find out all about the special. well certainly not everything lasts so long in space and old nasa satellite is out of control and plunging back towards earth but u.s. scientists are only left guessing where it will land with an almighty which could be anywhere on the planet pretty out of earth turn to the advice of russian cosmonauts to ponder whether we should be watching over our heads. it weighs almost six thousand kilograms has been monitoring the make up of our atmosphere for nearly

two decades and the best estimates suggest that on friday it's set to return home with a bump nothing is upper atmosphere research satellite or you a.r.s. was decommissioned in two thousand and five and is now headed for reentry most of the stuff like which is the site of a bus will burn up in the atmosphere however as many as twenty six chunks of the stricken research vehicle will strike the earth seventy percent of our planet is covered with water so the danger to us is fairly limited nothing will have an ounce of potential strike zone covering most of the globe so where it will come down is really anyone's guess what is known is that it won't fall in one place deborah is expected to be spread over eight hundred kilometers of fairly worrying stuff but how much of this space junk is there up there ready to come back down there are now over twenty thousand sizeable objects being tracked in its orbit the problem is the judicial process called the kessler effect that number is growing exponentially
7:16 am
which each collision shatters an object into smaller pieces and those pieces hit other objects if it keeps continuing at the same rate two hundred years from now we won't be able to get anything into an earth orbit as we just won't be any room. for looking at the sky from earth it could be hard to imagine the problems posed by space debris but when we look through a powerful telescopes like this one the true situation comes into focus the job of monitoring all of the debris in space is an important one not just for the future but for those currently in space and all the international space station over six hundred times a year the idea since has to take a vsam action to get out of the way of debris and if that isn't possible there's only one course of action left. the crew take shelter. in the most protected area of the ship the safest place is the capsule in the so use nodule so that's where
7:17 am
the entire crew hides when the station is considered to be in danger but a program with no viable way of getting space is spring clean we have to rely on the atmosphere to burn up most falling debris however in large cases like that of the u. s. the experts get a little concerned and. we'll use rocket enters the atmosphere people can track you when and where it's going to fall but it's impossible to predict where the pieces of a satellite that has broken apart i'm going to end up it shouldn't be too worried about a chunk of stuff like landing in your backyard however should that happen nothe there are warning against taking pieces as a souvenir not because it's toxic it's u.s. government property i'd be want it back you a.r.s cost seven hundred fourteen million dollars and if you fancy making some of that cash back for yourself on my bookies have been taking bets on whether it'll hit the pacific or the atlantic oceans peter oliver r.t.

now we're just minutes away from the business bulletin here on r.t.d. but for now it wasn't really all that long ago that the al-jazeera news network was considered by washington as quote evil but the white house has certainly changed its tune recently prison its groundbreaking coverage that's a little surprise critics of the wiki leaks revelations expose the director general of the qatar based network of having links to the cia and promoting him quickly to hurriedly quit artie's in sanaa an arctic circle story. right now al jazeera english is seen in million american households al-jazeera or the island is not in isolation anymore the channels in your face coverage of the violent turmoil of the middle east libya's emerging civil war has grounded cousy prime time slot with the u.s. and recent weeks claim al-jazeera has now resigned director general had ties to the cia. is basically the u.s. government and monitoring.

7:20 am
just in line with u.s. support of a series of regime changes in. the middle east. from the beginning useful concept into an international. court and that they did but the channel used to send messages from osama to obama and recalled al qaeda t.v. elgin. is truly is vicious inaccurate and excused now al-jazeera is getting life sound out some local u.s. networks but soon might be coming to your cable box right here in our area this is a situation where the media has become one of mr combat zone itself and who controls media we see it with news we see it with other channels around the world now we're seeing it without zero i think the u.s. will try to influence even more and perhaps praise more al-jazeera has been

the leader in that are literally changing people's minds an attitude is either setting the news agenda or is it and he's now a r t. well these days is interested in maintaining good relations with the united states that's according to media analyst filters al-jazeera. now for some years were quite closely with the united states government remember that qatar depends on its security from the united states it has. its own missile systems that it has a large u.s. military base. so certainly for about five or six years now there's been context retrievals where government and al-jazeera but it suited. al-jazeera i think it's anti american stance was known about on the arab street because that of course gave catron case out of syria itself a great deal of popularity so unfortunately these cables revealed the reality that
7:22 am
there had been some you know. negotiations and indeed you know relatively relations so in that sense i think that what i came for had to be sacrificed once if it come out in the open. we would argue after a muscular time for the world out that here now are some headlines from around the world this hour u.s. death row inmate has been executed by lethal injection state of georgia for the one nine hundred eighty nine shooting of an off duty policeman troy davis was convicted of murder in one nine hundred ninety one but maintained that he was innocent the weapon was never discovered d.n.a. tests fail to link him to seven out of nine witnesses also revoke their testimony at a later date however prosecutors maintain they never had doubts about his call before the roll to gain the support of thousands worldwide who held protests and vigils all. security forces of fired mortars and antigovernment protesters in the

up and running before anyone realizes that's according to russia's envoy tonight. because suppose this is the beaches we did want to move to the us is trying to secure agreements with the countries where the missile shield has to be placed turkey or maybe it will employ people but the haste with which they're trying to seal these deals for you can mean they want to grade your reality with certain european states before they rest of europe has made clear its stance on the shield then they'll keep western europe down to the fact of its existence i think our western partners are trying to get ahead of themselves they aren't providing any legal guarantees concerning their missile defense they are constantly asking questions about our so-called technical nuclear weapons we will discuss that with technical potential before the rascals back here from early countries running this we keep our weapons within our national territory why do they deploy theirs outside their borders with the west must take that first step of the matter before we may agree to talk further. we're going to stay with us here on

balance sheet was not change which means that if the situation were to deteriorate further globally i think we can push to expect from the federal reserve to actually start buying even more securities which in that sense new qualify as. he still has some firepower and i think that given where the global economy is going it should not be surprising if the federal reserve some late late a little bit later in the game actually goes without a last thing that they can do emerging markets are at a fourteen month low and the russian ruble is trading at off thirty two to the dollar that's worst for two years nick parsons from national bank explains why investors are pulling out of emerging economies. during the previous process of quantitative easing investors bought emerging market currencies they both emerging markets because that's where the fastest growth in the world was but even amongst those large fast growing economies we're starting to see a bit of disappointment creeping in brazil even moved to cut rates
